Bloomin' Bushes

Our red tipped Fraser's Photinia bushes are going crazy with blooms this year. We had the same bushes as a tidy hedge row at our bungalow in Arkansas and I'm quite sure they never bloomed there. This is our third spring in this house and I don't remember ever seeing these put on quite such a show. It almost made me second-guess the type of bush, until I looked it up and confirmed that Photinia do flower. We have a very large screen of them at the rear of the property, and it's a nice treat to see flowers all the way up the top no matter what back window from which I look. I even went out and cut several to add to my Friday evening flower arrangement for the dinner table.
